Reports say Donald Trump Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle split.
According to Page Six, Trump Jr. has moved on with Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson.
Monthly rumors have suggested that Trump Jr. and Guilfoyle's relationship is strained. Recently, several sources reported that the political power couple had separated or was unstable.
"Trump Jr. and Gulifoyle haven't been getting along over the past year," said one source.
"They get argumentative at Mar-a-Lago in front of people. Nothing crazy, but you know when a couple is fighting. They bicker in public." Trump Jr. has been pictured with Anderson several times, fueling speculations.
While Page Six exclusively announced the couple's breakup, President-elect Donald Trump selected Guilfoyle, US ambassador to Greece.
The Senate must approve Trump Jr.'s nomination, which Guilfoyle said she was "honored to accept" on Tuesday. Another insider called the relationship "rocky," while two others reported they split.
On Tuesday, a source told Page Six: "Anderson and Trump Jr. have been together for a few months, and are super cute and happy together. It's just a natural fit everyone is happy for them!"
On Tuesday, the Daily Mail revealed photos of Trump Jr. and Anderson holding hands after a romantic Buccan supper to mark her 38th birthday.
According to Page Six, Trump Jr. and Anderson were seen in a corner booth at Buccan holding hands and appearing close.
The source said: "He was chatting with customers on his way out and very friendly."
According to the Daily Mail, the pair have also spent nights at Anderson's place.
Trump Jr., 46, and Guilfoyle, 55, started dating in 2018 and engaged in 2020.
According to the Daily Mail, Trump Jr. and Anderson were spotted at Honor Bar in Palm Beach in September, supposedly "locking lips" during brunch.
However, many individuals close to Trump Jr. and Guilfoyle told Page Six that the engaged pair was still together. (One insider told us in September, "They are 100 percent together. They love each other.")
Guilfoyle and Trump Jr. gave multiple speeches before the election.
Slim Aarons favored Anderson's mother, Inger, and her father, financier Harry Loy Anderson Jr.
By mid-July, the socialite was seated behind Trump Jr. and Guilfoyle at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wis. Anderson was pictured conversing with Trump Jr.'s ex, Vanessa Trump, 46, during the event. We'd heard the two are great friends and that Anderson attended the convention with Vanessa.
Guilfoyle was at Mar-a-Lago on election night but not in a Trump family photo. (But a source told us, "It was a spontaneous photo which Elon Musk asked of President Trump." )
Page Six previously reported that Guilfoyle did not get along with the Trumps. A source claimed, "The family doesn't like her. "
But another insider insisted that wasn't true. "I've heard the president talk about Kim in private many times, and it has never been anything but positive," the source said.
In December 2022, Page Six reported similar rumors. "the vibe is that the family doesn't like Guilfoyle. She is trying too hard to be in the family."
When we asked for a response, Trump Jr.'s brother, Eric Trump, said, "I completely disagree with the narrative and happen to think the world of Guilfoyle."
Guilfoyle and Trump Jr. representatives did not respond.
Guilfoyle commented about the ambassadorship on X without addressing the split: "I'm honored to accept President Trump's nomination to serve as the next Ambassador to Greece and I look forward to earning the support of the U.S. Senate. President Trump's historic victory is bringing hope and optimism to the American people and to freedom-loving allies across the world."
"It was the democratic values born in Greece that helped shape the founding of America," Guilfoyle added. "And now, we have an opportunity to honor that history by bringing better days here at home and abroad."
"As ambassador, I look forward to delivering on the Trump agenda, supporting our Greek allies, and ushering in a new era of peace and prosperity."
Internet users promptly expressed their views on the alleged separation, with sentiments varying from supportive to scathing.
"If Trump Jr. really moved on with Bettina, this is a messy situation," an X user posted.
"Kimberly seems too ambitious for Trump Jr. Maybe she's better off," another person commented.
"Rumors are just that-rumors. Let's wait for official statements!" a third user argued.
"Kim landing an ambassadorship amid this drama? Iconic," another netizen wrote.
"Mar-a-Lago fights? That's peak reality TV energy," a follower quipped.
"Kim deserves better than this circus," another netizen added.
